Best Answer

A rodent is an animal with two sharp, constantly growing incisors. These teeth are kept short by gnawing. Rodents include rats, mice, hamsters and gerbils. They are mostly very small, although the biggest rodent is the capybara, which can grow to up to 4.3 feet. Canine ancestors may be a rodent or rodent related.

Common pet rodents are rats and mice (usually white), gerbils, and guinea pigs. Other rodents, such as chipmunks and squirrels, do not adapt well to captivity and seldom become pets.
